Just imagine what it would be like if Adams wrote articles for different sections of the newspaper instead of being a sports columnist.
For example, if he were a writer for the business section, how would that work? Instead of the glowing articles about a new business, we would read about how the owners were in over their heads, how the business plan was screwed up and that the location, signage and parking lot were horrible. He would predict that the business would soon fail and go down the tubes, dragging its investors and creditors into ruin along with it.
Or, how about obituaries? Instead of the articles listing the accomplishments, military service and public service of the decedent, we could expect to see articles: pointing out all of the decedent's failures, accusing the decedent of being a total dick in real life, mentioning that the decedent had no real friends and that even his family members and dog hated his guts. No doubt the article would also opine that the decedent's prospects for happiness in the hereafter are very dim if not altogether nonexistent.
Maybe covering weddings? Instead of really sweet articles, we would likely see articles ridiculing the bride's wedding dress, stating that the bride and groom were ill suited for one another and would likely divorce soon, pointing out the illegitimate progeny of both the bride and groom, opining that both bride and groom would be better off with their former boy or girlfriends than with each other, and describing the bridesmaids as sluts.
Maybe it's better that Adams is a sports columnist. He is easier to ignore in that role.
